- We're looking at POWER SHIFTS in Gatsby, chapter 7. Tonight, you'll read chapter 7 to the bottom of page 144. As you read, you'll want to mark power shifts when you annotate. You don't have to add them to your chart yet. Just put a G+ when Gatsby gains power, a G- when he loses some, a T+/T- for Tom. Be prepared to talk about it tomorrow!

- We'll have a seminar discussion on Juno and Frankenstein on Wednesday. You need to make notes (a web/mindmap/bulleted list/etc.) to prepare. Consider these questions:
DISCUSSION PROMPT: What do these texts, in
combination, tell us? Consider essential questions, as well as the nature
of growing up, issues of coming of age, and the roles and responsibilities of parents. Our essential questions are: 1. What
turning points in our lives determine our individual paths to adulthood? 2. How
do our families of origin, friends, societies, & psychologies shape our
morals & values? 3. What
does it mean to be an adult? How do you know when you are one?.
- If you haven't completed the "Stranger in the Photo is Me" pre-writing activity (handout), do so for Wednesday.
